Michael Wilbon, sports commentator for ESPN could be great. Right now, he’s just mediocre. Yet he has the potential to be great. One of his good friends is Charles Barkley, a man grounded in common sense, patriotism, understanding of the big picture, and grateful for the many opportunities that have been given to him. That one fact, in and of itself, should be enough to catapult Wilbon into greatness.
Wilbon’s mother was a school teacher. Again, this should be an advantage in this country. Having a well-educated parent helps the child to be well on his way to the next tier of society. Another brick in the wall of greatness.
The man from Chicago, Illinois graduated from one of the premier colleges in the country, Northwestern. Another brick.
He wrote for the Washington Post beginning in 1980 and graduated to television in 2001 when he became a sports analyst on ESPN and ABC, juggling three jobs. Eventually, he went to full-time work on television. Another brick.
Finally, he has co-hosted his own show, Pardon the Interruption, with Tony Kornheiser. Another Brick.
Read on the next page about how this man who should be great has just proven why he is merely mediocre, as he calls Jerry Jones of the Cowboys a SLAVE OWNER!
Put him in the field picking cotten and see how much better life is now!

Get this! An Employer, hires an Employee. The employer does this to make the business a success, not to be able to give people jobs. An Employer sets rules to make the most success he can for the company and that secures the most success for everyone involved. The employee agrees to those terms when he agrees to work for the business and signs a contract to that affect. That does not make the person who owns a company a slave owner and it does not make the employee a slave. If it did, any of us that work for a business that is not ours would have no say in what business we work for or what terms we agree to. This is an idiot thing to say.
